Hello Adam, > For mail that was sent, the salient dated information is the date and > time the mail was sent. If I look up under a date, I can't find when a > message was sent.
,----- [ From RFC 2822 - http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2822.html ] | 3.6.1. The origination date field | | The origination date field consists of the field name "Date" followed | by a date-time specification. | | orig-date = "Date:" date-time CRLF | | The origination date specifies the date and time at which the creator | of the message indicated that the message was complete and ready to | enter the mail delivery system. For instance, this might be the time | that a user pushes the "send" or "submit" button in an application | program. In any case, it is specifically not intended to convey the | time that the message is actually transported, but rather the time at | which the human or other creator of the message has put the message | into its final form, ready for transport. (For example, a portable | computer user who is not connected to a network might queue a message | | for delivery. The origination date is intended to contain the date | and time that the user queued the message, not the time when the user | connected to the network to send the message.) `----- I specially like this paragraph: > In any case, it is specifically not intended to convey the time that > the message is actually transported, but rather the time at which the > human or other creator of the message has put the message into its > final form, ready for transport. It is also true that same RFC 2822 says: > 3.6.6. Resent fields > > Resent fields SHOULD be added to any message that is reintroduced by a > user into the transport system. And only Resent-From is included by TB when a message is re-sent. But it says SHOULD, not MUST. -- Best regards, Miguel A.
